With its elegant pediment ornamenting the roof line and its welcoming canopied entrance, the frontage of the Newton has an immediate appeal that complements an enormously practical interior. The staircase, integrated into the lounge, adds a modern, loft-style focal point to the home, and the French doors that keep the kitchen bright and fresh, even during the most adventurous cooking, also make it easy to opt for barbecues and outdoor aperitifs in summer.
